Unrecorded

In Mizan, to be written is to exist. Every birth, every death, every inherited power is set down in the Great Ledger, and the faith of the Blind Scales promises that fate is dealt out blind and fair. Mira knows better. Born off-record in a forgotten border village, written into no line, she has spent sixteen years invisible to a world that counts everything — and invisible, her mother taught her, means safe. The unweighed are free. But Mira carries a power she was never meant to hold, and a voice inside her that is not her own. When she is forced to use that power to save the one person she loves, the recorded world turns its eye toward her at last — and what it sees should not be possible: a girl who does not exist, carrying a truth the Ledger has spent everything to keep buried. Now the most ordered power in the world is hunting a void it cannot name. With a cast-out noble she can't bring herself to trust and a guide whose help has a price, Mira must learn what she truly carries — and what her own invisibility is worth — before the hand that writes the world finds a way to erase her from it. Some truths are buried for a reason. This one was buried in a girl.
